Loop Ring Waterford Bit

Loop Ring Waterford Bit this loop ring wilkie style waterford bit is a very popular bit for ponies in need of extra brakes. The wilkie snaffle has an action similar to a continental, utilising pressure on the poll and raising the bit in the horses mouth to achieve additional control. The loop ring applies this action but to a milder degree, and with a much neater cheek, which is why it has found such favour for use on ponies that need something more than a snaffle. This waterford version can help prevent leaning. Some ponies dislike the action of a single joint, especially those with large tongues or small mouths, in which case a french link mouthpiece would be recommended to prevent head tossing. Needs to used with careful hands.
